Looking to connect with STR investors in Panama City Beach

Hi everyone,

I'm currently looking to buy my first STR investment property and after doing research on a few markets, I've narrowed it down to Panama City Beach, FL.
After talking to a real estate agent today, he gave me a good rundown of the market and also suggested I look into Destin. 

Now I'm looking to get insights from people that invest in this market: how has the recovery been like over the past two years? has the demand equaled or surpassed that of pre-2020 levels? what are some things to keep in mind when investing in this area? 

I appreciate any help and would love to connect with people that invest in this market. Thanks!

Dennis, I've shopped plenty there (not bought in that market yet -- plenty elsewhere). But I'm part of a Facebook group of owners in that market. It's called "STR Hosts of the Emerald Coast" -- and sounds 100% like what you're looking for. Reach out to @Matt "Roar" Gardner here on BP and let him know you're interested!
